If you mix the thought of everything and everything is infinite, then there is no definite thought, no definite nothing, just absolute without opposite, that's enlightenment. Anything that is defined, like "there is no physical world" is relative. Anything definite is relation with its opposite, the absolute is without relation, is where relationship can happen. This is a logical explanation and it's impossible to denying, but the point is being open to it for some moments, really.

Then I'm not happening? I'm not a facet of the reality, and the thought so? It's the reality in one side and me in another? That's what the non duality masters claim: reality is dual, and that's non duality. I'm also walking and I can stop walking, that's doesn't mean that me walking is not an arising of the reality, the reality itself Then a cat has no self? Prick it with a needle, you will see if he has a self, you will see it painfully

Look, just a logical reasoning: enlightenment is the realization of the absolute. Do you agree? Let's say that yes. Then, in the absolute, how could you realize that there is not Physical world, and the reality is an idea? It's impossible, because if you do, you would be in the relative. Don't you see it? In the absolute it's nothing that can be defined because it would be relative to anything else. Can be more obvious? The absolute is absolute, period. Then you see the relative, and you realize: fuck, this relative things that appears are made of the absolute, are the absolute in a form or perspective. Then, from this perspective seems that the reality is not physical....but who knows, it's just a perspective. Don't you see it?

"Physical universe" is just an idea that is the opposite of: "non physical universe". It is meaning. Enlightenment is out of meaning because it's total. Total is impossible to define because definitions happen in it, are relative. Physical universe is relative, nonexistent physical universe the same. If you don't believe it it's ok, but I think that many spiritual traditions agree, maybe tao te quing, or some kind of Buddhism. I think that what I'm saying is not offensive or unrespectful

That's just an idea. Enlightenment is openess, believe me. It's in another plane. Maybe anyone gets it as an intuition, and doesn't get stuck in the idea of no thought as enlightenment as I was for long time

If you are in total silence, there is still barrier. It's easy to be in mental silence if you practice meditation, anyone who does can after a while. But that doesn't implies that your being is open. That's why people try 5meo, 1000 ug of LSD and those things. To break the barrier. The thoughts are happening in the now, are the now. Enlightenment is not silence and direct perception of the now, is the opening to the real substance of the reality.

A lot of layers of fear and alert that are beyond the structured thought

Great post! According to Chatgpt, the risk of valvular heart disease with LSD begins at 60 mcg per week. This isn't a real certainty, as no cases have been reported. I often take microdoses just to enjoy the slightly high and expansive state. I notice it clearly at 2.5 mcg, and at 5 mcg, it's high. I take 10 mcg to go to a social gathering where I want to get directly high, since I don't drink alcohol. It's an extremely useful substance. I find psilocybin worse, less clean, but it's a matter of taste. Microdoses of weed are also absolutely useful. Meditation with a single toke of weed is another dimension of openness.

Long time without reading you. Sad that someone really interested is spirituality only post here to show condescension about leo, you should try some expression, we will appreciate

Maybe you didn't understand the process. During those 5 minutes I was in mental silence, I wasn't thinking nothing of 11 or work, but later I thought about those 5 minutes and I realized that there was a barrier, then I thought (because I was thinking, after those 5 minutes) about it and I wrote that of the 11 morning as a possible explanation about that barrier to give an example about silence and closeness.

I'll give you a clear example. Just now, I spent approximately five minutes in absolute mental silence, without a single articulate or conceptual thought. But the entire time, there was a state of alertness in the background. It's 11 a.m. and I'm at the gym. In half an hour, I have to run some errands for work. So, in addition to the articulate mental noise, there's an underlying tension of alertness. If you understand how your psyche works, you'll know there are many energetic layers beneath the surface. Once, for a month, I took strong psychedelics every day. This was helpful in beginning to understand the layers of the psyche. It's not so simple. You need a lot of understanding about how fear and desire closes. Not conceptual understanding, direct, see them and identify what they are, same than you can see a stone falling, you don't need to conceptualize to understand what's happening

No, the stopping of mind chattering can help with the openess to the nature of existence, but it doesn't implies enlightenment . You define enlightenment like Ralston, no mind and direct perception. That's not enlightened, it's just a mental State

quote any post that is wrong in your opinion, then I'm going to explain you deeply why I wrote this. Everything that I write is with a background, and can be developed. Try.

Maybe you just don't understand what I'm pointing or doesn't resonate with you. It doesn't means that you should tell me: be careful, or I'm going to hit you because I'm on power position and you don't Well, just my opinion. Btw, what wrote yesterday is quite high quality, objectively. Without the slightest bullshit.

More bullying? Ok, ban my account. It's the level here, congratulations. It's sad, but this is what we can find. That's why spirituality is what it is, a joke Anyone who's reading this can read my posts in this thread, see if are offensive or low quality

Look im sorry ok I believe, you are god and are dreaming, ok? Sorry, please, don't do anything to me, I promise I believe. What I said wrong? Tell me and I'm deleting. What was offensive? That about meditation? Please don't do nothing to me , was a joke, I'm god and meditation is good, or it's bad? Just tell me , please.

It's just your perception , because your understanding is limited to the dogma: I'm god dreaming the reality, because once you had that realization and now you remember it. Then you don't understand nothing that is out of that dogma, same than a Christian or a Muslim. Then in a given moment you could become aggressive, and ban anyone if they don't follow your dogma. look, what I'm pointing is real enlightenment, it's sad that nobody understands it. It's like talking to people that can't hear, like james, focused in his need of being enlightened and repeating neo advaita dogma. But spiritual people is mostly focused in evasion, that's normal

That's not enlightenment but it's impossible to show you nothing because the basis of your psyche is the need of being enlightened.

I'm serious in spirituality, not like you. But as you are a mod , you can bully me , that shows your level. Congratulations

Obviously I am now, as I told you I meditated a lot, I know all that. The point is that even being now in silence there are energetic barriers that close. They are made by fear and by a mental structure that filters the reality in certain way. Even you are in silence that structure is working in background. It's quite difficult to understand how it closes, you can't force that key by silence, you have to open it flowing with it, aligning it and equalizing it to make it transparent

You are a rock climber and teacher of that right? I used to feel like that, I was all time planning those kind of things, for many years, a lot. I was fascinated by difficulty and danger. It's a kind of energetic configuration that really is negative, but makes you do positive things that makes you having some foundations that you need. It's like the construction of the base of the real work. In some point, naturally, a shift happens.

Yes of course I did , I was 2 years meditating 2 hours by day or more If I could trying that. It's useful in many senses, make you centered, know yourself deeper, but enlightenment is openess. Meditation can help, but enlightenment is not being witness, is open yourself, it's radically different.

Neo-Advaita philosophy is false; it relies on a dualistic foundation to claim nonduality. Silence is true; the mind, body, psychological structure, and world are false, maya. Therefore, I am non-dual by pretending that what I deny as "false" doesn't exist, when obviously exist, then I categorize it as "illusory". Seems like making an effort to have a mental disease

Real spirituality is equalizing, aligning and opening. Nothing to do with loosing, silence, be kind, loving and that. It could happen as a consequence, not something that you try. You can try the opening, polish yourself . You need deep understanding of your fear, your structure as a human, not denial.

That is the description of neo advaita spirituality. And this is the mainstream spirituality nowadays . Good insight about its dangers and it's essence
